Nice bike man, I like the color. What tires do you have on it in this pic? They look brand new.

The front is a 110/80/17 (factory size) and rear is a 150/70/17. Is the rear tire being larger going to make it more difficult to learn to ride on? I was unsure of the brand or model, so i just went and checked. while i was there, i looked at the date code on the tires. front is from 1995 and rear is from 1996. I dont think i will be taking this thing on the freeway until i get new tires for it anymore ha! also found a plug in the rear tire!

Cortech Tank Bag...got on Ebay one night late shopping when bored.

MotoCentric side bags and seat bag. Craigslist find from a fella in CA that was willing to separate from the bike he was selling.

Not sure I can be more helpful than that but that set up worked REALLLY well for my trip, and was solid at highway speeds and beyond. I didn't try to carry camping gear...but I think I could have easily done it. Tent, bag, and all that craaaa....junk.
